PSA for Across the Spiderverse:

Do NOT see the new Spiderverse movie if you have any form of epileptic condition or conditions affected by bright lights and rapidly changing colors.

I will not be spoiling the plot or anything happening in it, but it is important that people know, because ohhh my god the AMOUNT of flashing lights and rapidly changing colors from beginning to end was so rampant that even I, a non-epileptic autistic person, got a severe headache and wild overstimulation. They do not give a warning in theaters at all that this movie is NOT epileptic friendly from the literal beginning with the beginning credits - which is so, so sad!

This is a beautifully made film, it's wonderful, it's amazing, but unfortunately, it's not a good time for anyone super affected by bright flashing lights in rapid succession, especially those seizure prone.

I wanted to put this out there BECAUSE there are no theater warnings. Idk if anyone else has put it out there, but it is SUPER IMPORTANT!!!

I wish you all a lovely day and hope they eventually have a remaster that will be much more friendly to epileptic and other people affected by bright, flashing lights.

(EDIT: Changed all text to plain text for screen readers! Sorry about that, my bad!)

SECOND EDIT: please do not fight in the comments of my post please... if you guys wanna talk stuff out in DMs, that is a-okay and not my business but I directly get notifications for everyone's comments and replies- including people fighting in the comments.

I understand that some theaters have warnings in them. Mine did not, and many other peoples' did not. It seems to be a theater by theater basis, so please understand that is where I'm coming from. If you had a warning in your theater, that is wonderful! And I'm very grateful that ya'lls theaters had warnings! That is a great sign. But please under stand that mine and many others' theaters don't have warnings.

Please take any arguments off my post, it is not meant to be grounds for heated discussion, just a warning for people who are photosensitive or epileptic. Thank you.

This might seem like an "old man yells at cloud" situation, but it's just wild growing up and being told how dangerous distracted driving is - how, at highway speeds, you can traverse the length of a football field (100 yards, 91 meters) in a matter of seconds - how one split second sending a text while driving could result in a potential fatal crash, and then getting on the road as a driver and being surrounded by billboards. Their entire purpose is to catch one's attention, so they're lining major roads, which tend to be highways. How is it that you're told how important it is to never be distracted while driving, but still being advertised to?

At best, this type of advertising is an eyesore to pedestrians and motorists and a general waste of electricity to light it, and at worst, it is an active danger considering they are there to advertise and therefore, must catch people's attention.

I'm not even against advertising in theory, but this particular mode bothers me so much and I hate how pervasive it is - especially in large cities or highways.

#politics #i don't know much about são paulo banning marketing billboards but on paper i want that here in the USA #as a motorist it at best just makes me more anxious driving in those larger cities because i want to FOCUS ON THE ROAD #and passing 5000 billboards per mile isn't helping actually! #i've gotten good at filtering that out of my FOV but it's still fucking exhausting lol #i especially hate those modern electric billboards. despise them actually #i am aware that advertising is a critical aspect to business management in some cases... #...but it shouldn't risk the safety of the populous for you to advertise to them and i see things like billboards as risking safety... #...i feel similarly about online advertising in that so much of it risks internet user's safety... #...such as flashing ads online which risk triggering epileptic seizures in light/photo-sensitive folks #distracted driving (texting): NO >:( || distracted driving (being advertised to): YAYYYY :D #i've been driving on my own for a few years now and i've been thinking about this for ENTIRELY too long

i think we as a community need to start cyberbullying hypnodoms that post strobing spiral gifs with no flash warning like “oOoO you can’t look away” cause as long as their notes are filled with ppl just eating it up instead of complaining about how irresponsible they’re being, they’re just gonna keep doing it.

we can do it girlies, start demanding better from these people.

#these fuckers deserve to be bullied idc #act cringey and put ppl at risk of fucking seizures and i’ll say mean words to you on the internet #hypnok1nk #hypnosis #hypnotized #hypnosub #hypno toy #brainwashing #mind conditioning #mind control #hypno dom #hypnodomme #hypno pet #hypno nsft #lavender rambles #my stuff #k1nk community

anyone else get so so tired.... of being tired......

#i am on the highest dose of wellbutrin (as a stimulant not as an anti depressant) u can be on without risking seizures #they dont want to give me anything else because i have severe insomnia which is fair since im taking 2 sleep medications also #but even when i get enough sleep i am so fucking tired #all the time! i tried adderall a few weeks ago and i was still so tired i had to just lay down all day

[semiotomatics]

hmmm

so i think i might be having seizures?

#this has been an original post #personal spewage #definitely looking forward to seeing a psychiatrist now #like. i figured Something had to be going on #but i just found out abt myoclonic seizures and that. sure sounds like what ive been having #and both meds im on apparently increase risk of seizures #soooooo #¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #oh well #yet another thing to anxiously fixate on

[martyrbat]

hiiii i know you love your gif header and im sure its sooo cool but also maybe reconsider having something dangerously flashing or strobing as soon as you visit your page lol

#listen i know people aren't always going to tag flashing lights/strobing if theyre not sensitive to it #and if in their bio or pinned they say it? ok great thanks for the headsup so i can know its actually dangerous for me to follow #but having it AS SOON as you tap a profile?? gross. #its especially the blogs that KNOW their blog is a big seizure risk but does this. like theyre self aware enough of it to have a warning #but dont care enough to not have it RIGHT THERE before you can read said warning (which makes it entirely useless) #with that said. goodnight im going tl try to not throw up as im twitchy and my entire body has a migraine lol.

yeah regarding that post its EXACTLY RIGHT, it really feels that nearly every time a big movie rolls around a post follows it up with "MASSIVE FLASHING LIGHTS WARNING FOR [new big movie]" like seriously WHAT HAPPENED???? movies are a massive collaborative medium how does this never pass through the hands of someone who says "hey, this is really dangerous, we need to edit this" ESPECIALLY in the context of a movie theater where that kind of thing would be most dangerous (dark room big screen ect)

i feel like theyre showing up a lot in video games too like lets not forget the cyberpunk 2077 thing

#and not as majorly like #even for ppl that arent put at risk of seizure by flashing lights #theyre known to be irritating for like. nearly everybody #basically everyone gets headaches from them #not to say that the risk of epileptic seizure isnt like an incredibly fucking important thing #but its baffling that no ones like hey this is headache inducing/hurts my eyes lets stop #sorry to just restate a post i already reblogged this has just been on my mind

i don’t want this to come off wrong but here’s a reminder for all my mentally ill folks out there: if you’re taking meds (specifically mood stabilizers and antipsychotics) and you’re feeling good and think you may not need them anymore, the meds are most likely a major reason you’re feeling better. please don’t quit your meds cold turkey. unless a doctor tells you they’re changing your meds, i’m begging y’all to not quit your meds all at once because you think you don’t need them anymore. if you don’t like your meds then please tell your doctor.

#i see people do this and then they relapse even harder #and i hate seeing other people do this because there is a very real health risk #plus with antipsychotics and mood stabilizers you could go into seizures #if you don’t like your meds PLEASE JUST TELL YOUR DOCTOR #mental health awareness #mental health #bipolar #𓆩♡𓆪 angel's thoughts 𓆩♡𓆪

getting kicked out of obgyn residency for answering every board certification question with "ABORT THAT THANG"

#cw pregnancy #SORRY i'm doing teratogen readings rn and literally. ripping my hair out lol #the implicit expectation in so much of obgyn that the first priority is fetal health and wellbeing lol. almost always over a pregnant #person's comfort and often over their actual wellbeing and safety #one of my readings saying that anti-seizure meds (which can cause birth abnormalities) are okay to give during pregnancy because seizures #pose a health risk to the fetus. and not mentioning anything about the pregnant person. and the health risks that seizures #pose to them. #what if i killed lol. ANYWAYS

if I go on wellbutrin and it gives me a seizure and pops my brain cyst like a grape I will have died the way I lived (desperately trying medications to fix me)

#there is literally no reason to think this aside from both are associated w slight increased seizure risk

me and my sister got last minute tickets to the old friends matinee and seeing bernadette peters perform in the flesh was a dream come true

#she was incredible #worth the seizure risk
